Other people couldn't help but prick up their ears. Wow, if they ever had any doubts about Franklin's being abused by his wife before, now they were all cleared.
After all, it had been confirmed by Master Brayden in person! Moreover, the listeners were also curious about what kind of woman Mrs. Maskelyne was to beat up Franklin.
Then some pieces of jewelry and antique calligraphy were sold, all at astronomical prices.
Tiffany sized Sylvia up occasionally, waiting to see what she was putting up.
Just then, the emcee paused for a second before saying, "The next item we are seeing is from Miss Andrews. It's a painting titled One Hundred Birds."
"One Hundred Birds?"
"Master Keturah is famous for painting birds and One Hundred Birds is among the ones with which he made his name. Can this be Master Keturah's work?"
A man who was a worthy painting collector was surprised.
"How's that possible? How can Sylvia own Master Keturah's painting?"
"Tell me about it! It's said that Master Keturah draws amazing pictures with his left hand and plays great piano music with the right one! He draws with his left hand! Left hand! Ordinary people can't even draw well using their right hands, let alone left hands."
"So is Master Keturah a left-hander?"
"But he plays piano with his right hand!"
There followed a heated discussion.
All those trophy female partners that came with the super-rich men were eye candy, so they didn't have to bring anything for the auction.
Unlike them, Sylvia was not someone who would attend such an event with empty hands so she brought a well-selected piece.
Then Sylvia got up from her seat and walked toward the stage.
After a look at the pretty woman's back, Paul lifted the corner of his mouth. "Mr. Mertens, is Miss Andrews your girlfriend?"
Logan felt really proud to hear that. "I'm so flattered. She is just the woman I adore."
"I happen to adore her too." Paul lowered his eyes smilingly. "What about a fair competition?"
Logan's face turned grim. He would never have the nerve to make that move because it would make him end up being a dead man.
He gave Paul a pitying look and said, "Then good luck, Master Paul."
Paul frowned, confused by his words.
That just didn't sound serious.
Meanwhile, Sylvia had come up on the stage, with all the eyes on her.
It was not until then that Clark was stunned by the look of the woman he had despised.
She was so stunning and eye-catching.
This woman afforded to feel superior.
She had more than beauty; she had connections too.
Among them, Master Keturah was the best one.
It suddenly hit him why this woman was always surrounded by those super-rich men.
The woman deserved that!
Sylvia glanced at the emcee. "You are not done with the introduction yet."
It was the first time the emcee had ever seen a woman that pretty.
He came to himself and continued, "This is a famous painting by Master Keturah, whose works are much in demand but priceless, so the opening bid is ten million dollars!"
The bidders felt silent.
It was Master Keturah's painting after all!
Her works were known to be like gold dust!
Tiffany stood up in disbelief, screeching, "That's impossible!"
The painting she brought were sold for five hundred thousand dollars, which was a trending topic on Twitter at the moment.
